Wind & Seismic Design
SEE ADDED 4. Seismic forces per CBC 1613 and ASCE 7-16.
SHEET S-1 5. Wind design using exposure C shall be based on the following procedures:
a. ASCE 7-16 chapters 26-30
b. CBC chapter 1609
6. Seismic design shall be based on the following procedures:
a. Equivalent Lateral Force Procedure, ASCE 7-16, 12.8:
i) Design the SFRS using redundancy factor of 1.3 per ASCE 7-16, Section 12.3.4
ii) For structures in Seismic Design Categories D, E, F having horizontal or vertical
structural irregularities of types indicated in Section 12.3.3.4.
iii) In using/applying formulas of Basic Combinations for Allowable Stress Design with
Over Strength Factor, allowable effects of horizontal seismic forces QE (0.7E) shall
be converted to design strength (1.0E). ASCE 7-16, 12.4.3.
iv) All parts of the structure between separation joints shall be interconnected and the
connection shall be capable of transferring the seismic force, Fp, induced by the
part connected. Any smaller portion of the structure shall be tied to the remainder
of the structure based on the strength specified in ASCE 7-16, 12.1.3.
b. Simplified Design Procedure, ASCE 7-16, 12.14:
i) All parts of the structure between separation joints shall be interconnected and the
connection shall be capable of transferring the seismic force, Fp, induced by the
part connected. Any smaller portion of the structure shall be tied to the remainder
of the structure based on the strength specified in ASCE 7-16,12.14.7.1.
ii) Provide reinforcement for openings and reentrant corners per ASCE 7-16
&12.14.7.2.
7. Shear Wall Design:
a. Provide a layout plan in the calculations.
b. Where shear design values exceed 350 p.l.f., foundation sill plates and all framing
members receiving edge nailing from abutting panels shall not be less than a single 3x
nominal member. Nails shall be staggered.
c. Provide maximum 5/8" diameter steel bolts embedded 7 inches into the foundation with
minimum 3" x 3" x 0.229" thick plate washer (CRC 602.11.1) for the anchor bolts.
Allowable shear per AWC 2018 NDS Table 12E (CBC 1905.1.8) exception 1.
8. Provide design of the shear wall hold downs.
9. Hold downs are required for shear walls with any uplift force.
10. Provide details of the hold down system on the plans.
11. Horizontal diaphragm and chords and collectors.
a. Specify thickness, grade, T&G edges, panel span rating, nailing schedule and required
blocking.
SEE NOTES ON A-2 Foundation
AND ADDED SHEET
S-1 12. Provide continuous footing with one #4 reinforcement, top and bottom.
13. Specify slab on grade concrete floor slab thickness, reinforcement and moisture barrier on
foundation plan.
14. Show method of tying new footings and slab into existing footings. Show construction
details.
15. Foundation sill plate shall be preservative-treated wood or foundation redwood.
16. Fasteners in contact with preservative-treated wood shall be hot dipped zinc-coated
galvanized steel, stainless steel, silicon bronze or copper.
17. Provide detail of the reinforcement at footing intersection and corners.

ANCHOR BOLT DESIGN
18. The design of hold down anchor bolts shall comply with ACI 318-19 Chapter 17 or as
required in the ICC ESR for the anchoring system used. Clearly show how the load
complies with section 17.10.5.3 of ACI 318-19.
The design shall assume cracked concrete.
The design of post-installed anchors shall be based on 2,500 p.s.i. concrete.
The anchorage design is to be done at a strength level.
ADDITIONAL CORRECTIONS
19. The engineer of record shall stamp and sign all structural plan sheets and the structural
calculations.
20. Provide a lateral analysis for all four sides of the addition. Do not assume support from
existing elements without analysis of these elements. Show any existing elements assumed
in design on the plans. Per California Existing Building Code Sections 502.5 & 503.4
existing lateral lines not seeing an increase in lateral loading of 10 % or more can remain
unaltered.
21. The addition does not meet the requirements for bracing per 2022 CRC. Provide a
engineer's design per the 2022 CBC or clearly show how the whole structure complies with
the bracing requirements for the 2022 CRC.
22. Fully detail the project.
23. Provide a response to all corrections on this list and redlines on the plans.
